Solution

git bulk — Execute operations on multiple Git repositories. Part of git-extras. More information: <https://github.com/tj/git-extras/blob/main/Commands.md#git-bulk>.

Register the current directory as a workspace:

git bulk --addcurrent {{workspace_name}}

Register a workspace for bulk operations:

git bulk --addworkspace {{workspace_name}} /{{path/to/repository}}

Clone a repository inside a specific directory, then register the repository as a workspace:

git bulk --addworkspace {{workspace_name}} /{{path/to/parent_directory}} --from {{remote_repository_location}}

Clone repositories from a newline-separated list of remote locations, then register them as workspaces:

git bulk --addworkspace {{workspace_name}} /{{path/to/root_directory}} --from /{{path/to/file}}

List all registered workspaces:

git bulk --listall

Run a Git command on the repositories of the current workspace:

git bulk {{command}} {{command_arguments}}

Remove a specific workspace:

git bulk --removeworkspace {{workspace_name}}

Remove all workspaces:

git bulk --purge
